Paper and specialty media guide
Supported paper types and weights
Notes:
•
Your printer model may have a 650‑sheet duo drawer, which consists of a 550‑sheet tray and an integrated
100‑sheet multipurpose feeder. The 550‑sheet tray of the 650‑sheet duo drawer supports the same paper as
the optional 550‑sheet tray. The integrated multipurpose feeder supports different paper sizes, types, and
weights.
•
Some printer models may not support the optional 550-sheet tray.
